Today I bought a PC10 from klover: Kulfer19. It needs some work espc. those darn Sanryo monitors(don't they always need recapped?) but it's pretty darn clean but has some chips out of the control pannel and some missing T-molding:



Besides trying to fix the sanryos the only cosmetic thing I'm gonna do for sure is put new white t-molding on the whole thing. I got three games: 1942, SMB3 and baseball now to fix it and fill it up with good stuff.

PS: just a point of intrest- one of the monitors has a sticker on it that indicates it used to be a Super Punchout at one time
 
Great second pick-up. :) How do you like it so far? Any burn in on the monitors? I love my single monitor version...
 
Looks pretty good but I have to say that side art is probably the most faded sticker side art I have ever seen. Seems to be pretty decent otherwise. About the Sanyos needing cap kits, they always seem to, though do appear to be pretty solid monitors, otherwise.

It's ok but due to my lack of experience with a saudering iron I'm looking for local help. I have one but I'm not confident in my skill on this one. The montors seems to be pretty much burn fee but I'll know more when I get the cap kits in.

Yeah but it's pretty much in tact. My main cosmetic thing is the messed up T-molding(since I hate the possibility of splinters). Other things like the Control panel may follow later but the saideart wasn't torn so I was gonna leave it(gives me the made in the 80s feeling)

I'd do it if I were closer. I just did a Sanyo and it was a breeze. Don't know why people dislike working on Sanyos. The only annoying part is that you have to remove the entire monitor to work on the chassis, other than that- it seemed more clearly labeled and didn't take as long as the Matsushita that I did soon afterwards.
 
just a small update: I got the monitors out and after taking off that nice tinted glass I found some slight burn-in from Super Punchout. It's not even that bad but now I need to get over being chicken and dissemble some monitors.(umm "remove the neck board" on some instructions I found is making me not want to do it out of fear of breaking stuff more)
